Open to suggestions. Use of prepackaged scripts: I’m not opposed to using out of the box pieces for this site as long as it is very well done and all works together seamlessly. If you already have done something similar to this and can edit it to meet my needs, that would be fine. I would actually prefer that. I ’m pretty open minded, just be sure to disclose what packaged pieces or customized programs you plan on using and be able to show me it can work like I want it too.
